I was born and raised in rural south-central Ohio about an hour south of Columbus. Shortly after obtaining a BA in Early Childhood Education from Wilmington College of Ohio, I taught K-4 Intervention in the Greenfield Exempted Village School District in Greenfield, Ohio for one year. After a year teaching in my native Ohio, I relocated to Raleigh, North Carolina after accepting a teaching position in the Wake County Public School System.

In Raleigh, I taught 3rd grade several years at Wilburn Year-Round Elementary  later teaching 4th and 5th grades at Powell GT Magnet Elementary along with completing my administrative internship. I obtained my graduate degree in School Administration from NC State University

I was the Instructional Facilitator (IF) and testing coordinator at Wendell Creative Arts and Science Magnet Elementary in Wendell, North Carolina for a few years prior to serving in my current role of Assistant Principal at Carroll Leadership in Technology Magnet Middle School in Raleigh.

Outside of my profession, I proudly serve on Wilmington College’s Alumni Council and am a member of the Wake County Historic Preservation Commission.

I look forward to learning and growing together.
